Re: Opinions on price and silver frost color please

tkdalumni on this forum has silver frost and I have seen his car in person and the up keep and maintenance seems to be much lower than my black raven V Coupe. His silver frost paint is easy to wash and seems very durable. His car always looks clean and no rock chips or anything like that at the 3K miles he has on his car. I would go for it. That payment is good for the car, but depends on what MSRP of the car lists at.

Re: Opinions on price and silver frost color please

Thanks guys...especially TKDalumni. Now if I can just find it set up the way I want, I think i'll pull the trigger. I guess I just don't know how to handle the paint. I mean now when I come home from a drive, i just use some final inspection and a towel to remove bugs while they're still fresh. Does this paint have a rough feel to it that won't allow you to wipe it? sorry if that's a dumb question, i just have no idea what this paint is like.

The cars are pretty hard to find, so you should probably go for the one you are looking at. Searching for the exact options you want is going to be near impossible. Basically, mild soap and water is all you need to clean it.

The silver frost is nice.. if your planning on keeping the car (long term) then you just need to think some things through. Any matte or pearl color is always more difficult to touch up (so keep that in mind) and usually, no matter how good a driver you are, you never know of the other guy! If you do alot of highway driving, you'll need to have the mindset to live with rock chips as you can't put any clear bra on the front (or else you'd create a shine). Touch ups are next to impossible as you'll see those. Sounds discouraging yes, but you'll have one nice car which will definitely get lots of looks (especially in a V). If you get a good deal on it, then it makes sense to go for it, especially as one member already mentioned they're rare cars.

Hi new to the forum . I bought the CTS -V coupe with the silver frost in May very easy to take care of with the right stuff . You have to use a matt paint shampoo the best one is made by Dr Beasley it a little high but it works really good . My car is #8 of #100 and my car came with the clear bra on it from the dealer looks good and easy to clean.

How do you know what # your car is? Did you get a COA or something stating that?
